Waulud's Bank is a Neolithic enclosure located near Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire. The monument comprises a substantial bank and ditch system that originally enclosed an area of considerable size, though the earthwork is now partially obscured and fragmented by modern land use. Dating to the Neolithic period, the site represents an example of a causewayed enclosure, a distinctive monument type characteristic of early Neolithic communities in southern Britain. Such enclosures are thought to have served multiple functions, including gathering places, stock management areas, and ceremonial or ritual centres for Neolithic populations.
